David Archuleta may not have won this season's "American Idol," but the young singer is still feeling blessed. Archuleta was the runner-up on "Idol."
On Monday, the 17-year-old took time out of his schedule to write on his MySpace blog about how he spent Father's Day. Archuleta said, "For Father's Day my dad, a friend of ours and I went to Soup Plantation for lunch haha. I actually really liked the food there. We also had enough time in the day to go to church before the schedule started and lunch so that was neat to be able to do."
Archuleta's dad, Jeff, was involved in a minor controversy during the show when his backstage privileges were revoked after he reportedly interfered with the production of the show.
Archuleta has maintained that his dad is a great guy and has his best interests at heart.
He wrote in the blog, "Thanks everyone for wishing my dad a happy Father's Day. I really appreciate that and I know he does as well. He's been great so I'm glad you guys took time to send him your messages. Hope everyone else's dads had a great time too!"
Archuleta and the other "Idols" are currently rehearsing for the "American Idol" summer tour.
